During the actor's acceptance speech, he addressed Kidman and the rest of the predominantly female cast of HBO's Big Little Lies.
"The ladies of the show, thank you making this boy feel like one of the girls," the 41-year-old said, laughing.

Others were decidedly against the TV-turned-reality kiss between Celeste/Nicole and Perry/Alexander, especially in front of Urban.

Hollywood is so weird. How can Nicole Kidman just casually kiss a man in front of her husband ?

Some just couldn't get past the fact that these two actors play characters who definitely aren't a good fit for romance.
In that way, they couldn't bear to watch the kiss between these two after seeing their volatile relationship unfold on Big Little Lies.
prevnextI know BLL is fiction, but when Nicole Kidman congratulated Alexander Skarsgard with a kiss, I was like girl, no. Not him.

Role model reactions:
Some fans just took the kiss for what it was: two exceptionally attractive people celebrating a happy moment together.
In fact, they say they'd have done the same given the opportunity.

Who was the real winner?
For those worried that the kiss in question might mean Kidman and Urban are having some trouble, don't fret.
The real-life husband and wife shared a kiss much steamier than any Skarsgård peck when the actress picked up her award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie.
Who's the real winner here? Signs point to Keith Urban.
